You all remember our story covering Randi Harper’s bully review and her subsequent fight against Amazon for removing it, right? Well, just recently, we received this email telling us about O’Reilly Media giving Randi the stage to talk about her “campaign against abuse and harassment.” Yes, we’re trying not to laugh, too. We’re posting this to get the word out so that O’Reilly Media might come to understand just who they are supporting.
Dear blog reader, we posted the tweets you requested. Hopefully O’Reilly Media will come to their senses.

Unfortunately it looks like what’s happened is the same pattern over again. Someone’s warned them ahead of time that there’s an angry internet mob out to harass Randy Harper so when they see a backlash, they don’t even bother checking the information people are posting. They just see it as vindication that the person who warned them must’ve been right.
Too many idiots in positions of power I’m afraid. A complete lack of skepticism in their convictions.
No more O’Reilly books for me.
That’s unfortunate. They really need to look into this woman before they give her a venue on which to speak.
Perhaps you can email or message some of the O’Reilly staff and send screenshots of her activities as proof.
I wonder what poor, misinformed soul got suckered in over at O’Reilly media. Perhaps they should see a copy of her latest mugshot from one of the Georgia county jails she posed for on her last run-in with the law.
And to note this is the lady I’ve heard is enabled with a friend on Twitter. I’m not sure if that’s true, but why a place would give her a platform is beyond me.
